    I had gotten every trophy bar one on the original Borderlands just through actual gameplay. Decided to go after it just to get the 100%. I did feel a little dirty afterwards. :o

    Never played any Nintendo games bar a few on the Game Boy Advance and the Wii nor have I played any Microsoft exclusives.

    I've only owned PlayStation consoles myself and just played a few Nintendo titles on my sibling's consoles. I've always had too many games to keep me occupied on the systems I own to be honest! :)

    I've never enjoyed the Mario games and hate Nintendo recycling their 1st party stories.

    Great gameplay in Zelda and Metroid but let's get a some writers in please!!

    I never finished Skyrim - despite 400+ hours ( damn mods - dozens of restarts and general exploring)

    I have never played any final fantasy's nor zelda games.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,122 ✭✭✭BeerWolf


    I've never played [off the top of me head]:

    - Legend of Zelda series
    - Metal Gear series
    - Assassin's Creed series
    - Gears of War 2&3
    - Mario games past Mario 64, including Kart
    - Resident Evil games, besides RE2
    - Golden Eye
    - Most "Popular" games of recent years I guess...

    On a side note, I have never finished [Mainly RPGs]:

    - Final Fantasy 8, 9, 10 & 12... even though I regard myself as a big fan of the series! Seriously looking forward to FF 15, looks amazing.
    • FF8, lost a disc so I couldn't finish the game.
    • FF9, fecking save file got corrupted TWICE from the cheap memory unit you got with the PS1.
    • F10, PS2 broke so never got around to finishing the game.
    • F12, Same reason... PS2 broke.
    - Ocean Star: Till the End of Time & The Last Hope
    • End of Time, PS2 broke.
    • Last Hope, burnt me out doing everything being the perfectionist I am... which is an oxymoron considering I never finished! :p
    - Lost Odyssey: Was just too busy to finish it, even though the game had amazing graphics and stories in it. Was a fantastic game, will have to finish it at some point.
    - Tales of Vesperia: Totally burnt myself out quick and lost interest with the stupidly slow process of LEARNING TO COOK!!
    - Enchanted Arms: Horrible game!!

    Never played Final Fantasy, although honestly that doesn't seem that odd. I'm getting the strong impression here that, at least outside Japan, Final Fantasy is kind of a niche game series. A large niche, but still a niche. It's well-known amongst gamers because the following it does have is devoted but it's not quite mainstream.

    Never owned a PS1 or PS2.
    Never bought/thoroughly played any Pokemon games, even though I was a kid when it was crazy popular.
    Never paid to play online.
    Never finished a Half Life game despite being a PC gamer.
    Never won through domination in Civ 5 (I've spent over 200 hours on Civ 5 and I rarely lose).

    Niche ? It's always in the top 10 charts, for quite awhile, when they're released... :o

    FF15 is going to be no different, it's been 6 years since FF13 (2009) [14's an MMO], and MANY are eagerly looking forward to it... just looks awesome :)

    For shame!!!

    I've never cleared Planescape Torment, even though i recommend it to everyone.
    I've never played as Femshep.
    I've never won a game of Civ5.

    I've never owned a Sega console despite starting gaming in 1993.

    My western RPG completion rate is pathetic. Baldur's Gate, Planescape Torment, Fallout 1 and 2, all the classics really I barely touched.

    In my defence I had an irrational negative view of western RPGs for a long time... which isn't a defence, it's just plain idiotic, just as idiotic as the people that say turn based games and RPGs are crap. Anyway I got over it in the last few years and realise how stupid it was (and I was playing them totally wrong to begin with).

    The only Lucas Arts point and click I finished was the first Monkey Island depsite having played most of them.

    Never finished Deus Ex.

    Plenty of JRPG classics I never finished either, Valkyrie Profile, Dragon Quest 5, Shin Megami Tensei 3, etc. The list is endless.

    Oops had RPG on the brain. Should have gotten up earlier!

    I've never played an MMO.

    I've never owned a playstation 2.

    I never owned;
    • Nintendo 64
    • Super Nintendo
    • NES
    • Gameboy

    I never played;
    • Any Zelda game
    • Any Metroid Game
    • Shadow of the Colossus
    • ICO
    • A raid on World of Warcraft (I've been level 80 for about 2 years)
    • Every Resident Evil game except 1, 4 and 5

    I never finished;
    • Final Fantasy VII (Reason: I can't beat the last boss, so I gave up)
    • Sonic The Hedgehog 1/2/3/S&K (Despite owning all of them for about 20 years, I've never finished a single one. Either I lost all my lives or I gave up)
    • Fallout: New Vegas (My Xbox Achievements would suggest otherwise, but I refuse to finish the game since it disallows playability past the game's finale)
    • Any Command and Conquer game (I own every one of the main games, and I've never finished a single one)

    I've never liked;
    • Half-Life
    • Team Fortress 2

    Is this thread just an illuminati cover to try and find the people who have never played Journey so them can be lifetime insta-banned?
    Cause if not... it should be.... I'm just saying :o

    Well, although half the things I mentioned seem a lot. I haven't mentioned the games I HAVE played/finished and consoles I have owned. If I was to present that list to you, my name would be justified :P
